Resorts and Lodges in Washington

Head to Reno, Nevada, to experience both the outdoor beauty of the Lake Tahoe area and the glitz and glamour that exemplifies a true Nevada getaway. Here, you will have the opportunity to experience a truly one-of-a-kind four seasons getaway with activities for the entire family. During the winter months, head to North or South Tahoe and hit the slopes with your skis or snowboard. More than a dozen ski resorts give you plenty of options to choose the slopes that fit your skill level. If downhill is not your thing, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing trails let you explore the natural beauty of this area.
During the summer months make sure to pack your golf clubs for a chance to tee off at Wildcreek Golf Course. Just a short drive from Reno, this RSCVA-owned facility has been chosen three times to host a PGA Champions Tour event. If your luck is failing you on the links, head to one of the nearby casinos and try to change it on your own.
Don’t fall under the impression that Reno is an adults-only getaway. The Nevada Discovery Museum and the Wild Island Family Adventure Park are great choices when the kids are traveling with you.
